When the Boogie Board Sync eWriter is connected and charging, you will see two lights: Boogie Board Sync eWriter External Device • The charging indicator light next to the micro USB port on the Boogie Board Sync eWriter will appear RED. This light will turn OFF when the Sync is fully charged. • The status indicator light next to the erase button on the front of the Boogie Board Sync eWriter will appear RED.

Disconnect the micro USB cable from your external device and Boogie Board Sync eWriter. Your Boogie Board Sync eWriter is now Status Indicator ready to use. It is suggested to charge your Boogie Board Sync eWriter when the Status Indicator light appears yellow or red. See page 16 for an indicator light chart. BOOGIE BOARD SYNC 9.7 EWRITER USER MANUAL 9 Turning Your Boogie Board Sync eWriter On and Off 1. To turn on your Boogie Board Sync eWriter, press the POWER button. The status indicator will light up GREEN, RED or YELLOW based on your Boogie Board Sync eWriter’s current battery life. See page 16 for the indicator light chart. 2. To turn off your Boogie Board Sync eWriter, press the power button. The status indicator will turn RED, then turn off. After one hour of inactivity, the Boogie Board Sync eWriter will save your data and then turn off. Pairing Your Boogie Board Sync eWriter to a Bluetooth Device 1. Turn on your Bluetooth-enabled external device (e.g., smartphone, laptop, tablet, etc.) and go to the device’s Bluetooth settings. 2. Make sure your Boogie Board Sync eWriter is turned off. While the Boogie Board Sync eWriter is off, first press the SAVE button and then simultaneously press the POWER button. This causes the Boogie Board Sync eWriter to Save button Power button Press both buttons simultaneously to enter Bluetooth pairing mode enter pairing mode and become discoverable. 3. Once your Bluetooth-enabled device discovers the Boogie Board Sync eWriter, you can pair to the Boogie Board Sync eWriter. The Boogie Board Sync eWriter Bluetooth indicator will flash BLUE three times when it is paired and connected with your Bluetooth device. To disable Bluetooth connectivity: Turn off the Boogie Board Sync eWriter, and then press the ERASE button while simultaneously pressing the POWER button. Bluetooth may need to be disabled on airplanes and other environments (e.g., hospitals). Writing and Drawing on Your Boogie Board Sync eWriter 1. To write or draw, use the Sync Stylus just as you would use pen on paper. The status indicator blinks once to indicate that the Boogie Board Sync eWriter’s digitizer recognizes the Sync Stylus. Additional writing and drawing features are available with the free Sync Virtual Desktop Companion (VDC) software at: http://improvelectronics.com/support/downloads/ IMPORTANT: Only use the Sync Stylus to write or draw on your Boogie Board Sync eWriter. You do not need to be connected to a computer or Bluetooth device while using the Boogie Board Sync eWriter for it to function. IMPORTANT: DO NOT use the Boogie Board Sync eWriter near a magnet, as the magnet can interfere with digitizer functioning. The magnet WILL NOT affect the Boogie Board Sync eWriter memory, so files saved on the Boogie Board Sync eWriter won’t get erased if you place your Boogie Board Sync eWriter near a magnet. BOOGIE BOARD SYNC 9.7 EWRITER USER MANUAL 10 SAVING AND ERASING Saving Your Image 1. To save an image, press and release the SAVE button. This saves everything on the Boogie Board Sync eWriter’s LCD (surface) to its internal memory. The status indicator will flash rapidly while your image is being saved, and return to a solid light after it is finished. You must use the Sync Stylus for your images to save on the Boogie Board Sync eWriter. Marks on the Boogie Board Sync eWriter’s surface created with something other than the Sync Stylus will not show up in the saved file. Erasing Your Image 1. To erase an image created on your Sync, press the ERASE button. This clears the Boogie Board Sync eWriter’s surface. The status indicator will turn RED and the Boogie Board Sync eWriter’s surface will flash rapidly while the image is being cleared. If the image does not clear, check to see if the Boogie Board Sync eWriter is powered on. Hit the erase button too soon? Erase DOES NOT mean “delete” – pressing the erase button clears the Boogie Board Sync eWriter’s surface, but your image is saved in the “Erased” folder in the Boogie Board Sync eWriter’s internal memory. Connect your Boogie Board Sync eWriter to a computer to access the Boogie Board Sync eWriter’s memory and recover your erased image. See page 12 for more information on accessing files on your Boogie Board Sync eWriter. BOOGIE BOARD SYNC 9.7 EWRITER USER MANUAL 11 TRANSFERRING SAVED FILES TO A COMPUTER 1. Connect your Boogie Board Sync eWriter to your desktop or laptop computer using the USB cable. 2. Open the Sync folder to view your Saved and Erased folders. Saved and erased files will show up as a list of PDF files. 3. From here you can delete or move files as you would normally from a mass storage device. IMPORTANT: Files deleted off of your Boogie Board Sync eWriter are PERMANENTLY deleted — the Boogie Board Sync eWriter does not have a “trash” or “recycle” bin for electronic files. BOOGIE BOARD SYNC 9.7 EWRITER USER MANUAL 12 DIGITIZER MODE To operate the Boogie Board Sync eWriter in “digitizer mode” - which allows you to use your Sync Stylus to control your cursor as a mouse or input device - first download the Sync Virtual Desktop Companion (VDC) software from our website: http://improvelectronics.com/support/downloads/ After installing the Sync VDC, select the Sync icon that appears in your computer’s menu bar and select “Digitizer Mode” to switch from the default “VDC mode.” Move the Sync Stylus close to, but NOT IN CONTACT with (i.e., hovering over) the Boogie Board Sync eWriter drawing surface. To select a button or feature on your computer, touch the stylus to the Boogie Board Sync eWriter drawing surface to create the equivalent of a mouse “left click.” A “right click” is produced instead of a “left click” by holding in the button on the Sync Stylus when touching the Sync Stylus to the drawing surface. CARE AND MAINTENANCE Store your Boogie Board Sync eWriter in an upright or flat position (just ensure there is nothing else lying on top of the surface.) Always store your Boogie Board Sync eWriter with the Sync Stylus docked. Treat your Boogie Board Sync eWriter like any electronic device. Do not store or use it extreme temperatures or humidity. See the Technical Specifications on page 7 for additional information. BOOGIE BOARD SYNC 9.7 EWRITER USER MANUAL 13 SUPPORT TROUBLESHOOTING ISSUE SOLUTION My Boogie Board Sync is unresponsive. What should I do? 1. Press the Power Button to turn off/on 2. Connect your USB cable to make sure your Boogie Board Sync eWriter is fully charged (see page 9) 3. Turn the Boogie Board Sync eWriter over and locate the reset button. Using a blunt pin or another small object, push the button. My notes and drawings are not being saved to the device memory. 1. Ensure that you are writing with the provided Sync Stylus – status indicator should be blinking green when the pen touches the Boogie Board Sync eWriter. 2. Ensure that you are pressing the save button to physically save the file to memory after you complete your drawing and BEFORE you erase Image. 3. Ensure that the device is charged. 4. Ensure that the device’s memory is not full (which would cause the status indicator to flash red when writing). 5. Ensure that the device is not connected to your computer by the micro USB cable, which disables the ability to save. You’re able to save if the device is wirelessly connected. 6. Reset on back – This will not cause you to lose data. I’m plugged in but nothing appears on my computer when I write on my Boogie Board Sync eWriter. You first need to download and launch the Sync Virtual Download Companion (VDC) from our website: http://www.improvelectronics.com/ support/downloads/ Still need help?
